I assume you focus on the last line.

But I think it is very well common knowledge, that lowering taxes for the wealthier to put them on people with less income is not helping to improve economy.

I think putting the costs more on the shoulder of the most powerful is kind of common sense.

I am not supporting the phrase, that capitalism is theft. But I support that parts of taxes are legitimated by the services the payee receives and for parts for the economic strength one has.

No I am not just against the last line, but I'm against the entire ideology. Taxation as a system is evil, because it punishes productive people for being productive while financing the coffers of bureaucrats who waste that money through indiscriminate spending on useless things and the end result is none of the things that the taxes were supposed to fund get fully funded. Taxation is theft. It's a parasitic and crippling way of thinking that was drummed into our heads for the longest time that paying taxes was somehow "a patriotic duty" to help build the roads and infrastructure etc.. The problem is that we live in an mafia style empire of lies where incompetence is dressed up as prudence and theft as a patriotic duty; and we are forced to pay taxes at gunpoint without any say so with regards to how the politicos use our tax dollars. If they declare war on some far away country that nobody has ever heard of for whatever reason, by default you become a participant in that war, since you are paying for it. In short, more taxes aren't the answer.

To your short answer. When there are common goods, the common needs to pay them. It is not only a question to pay them or not. It is mostly about who is paying them.

And lowering taxes for rich is not at all a statement against taxes. It is only empowering the rich above their productivity.
